Lazy quitter gonna be lazy quitter. Stop associating Ben Simmons with LSU. Far better representatives of our university to choose from

quote:

The 76ers announced Tuesday afternoon that Ben Simmons has been suspended one game for conduct detrimental to the team, which will cause him to miss the team's season-opening game in New Orleans against the Pelicans.

quote:

The statement was released late in the team's practice Tuesday -- after, sources told ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski that Simmons had been thrown out of practice by 76ers coach Doc Rivers. Simmons was tossed essentially for a refusal to participate in the next stage of the session, sources told Wojnarowski.

quote:

Simmons' reluctance to physically and mentally engage with the Sixers since his return has been a consistent theme, sources told Wojnarowski.

I defended him when he was at LSU because I thought it was a Johnny Jones problem. I see now that that may not have been the case. What a soft, entitled bitch.

Aw man. And I was looking so forward to making the trek down I-10 to the Blender to see an all-time great Tiger in action.

Sixers are a bad organization, Ben would benefit from a fresh start elsewhere. Hope the best for him, great kid and a True Tiger.

Someone needs to let Ben know that it’s not a good combo to be your teams highest payed player and worst one of the floor

I have no sympathy. I thought he was a narcissistic jerk while in Baton Rouge…

You really aren't in good hands with Ben running your team.

This is a terrible take Doc Rivers is a hall of fame coach. Ben Simmons is a head case.

This generation of athletes know that they can get away with this type of behavior IF they have exceptional talent. We as a society continue to allow this to happen. If the 76ers release him there will be another team chomping at the bit to sign him based on potential/talent. All that does is reinforce this behavior.

76ers need to fire Johnny Jones. I don’t blame Ben one bit for not wanting to play for him.

I remember all the downvotes and dumbasses that went against me when I was one of the few voices that called out how soft he was, how he was overrated, how he shouldn't be considered a LSU legend or anything close to that. He was a sucky, soft bitch arse with no jump shot at LSU and nothing has changed.
